Diagnosis of cryptosporidiosis is currently confirmed by the detection of the oocysts or endogenous stages in fecal or tissue samples. Various conventional staining methods and serodiagnostic techniques have been reported, but the latter has far been limited to a few laboratories. Cryptosporidium has recently been reported in mice and chiekens in Korea, but there has been no report on staining methods to the oocysts. The present study was performed by light and scanning electron microscopic observations, and discussed with staining properties of four conventional methods such as dichromate solution floatation method, Carbol fuchsin stain, Auramine-O stain and Giemsa stain method. Cryptosporidial oocysts were isolated from the laboratory mouse. In tissue sections of duodenum, jejunum, ileum, cecum and upper colon, numerous very small, basophilic bodies were observed on the border of mucosal epithelial cells. In scanning electron microscopic observations, a few of developmental stages of Cryptosporidium were seen. Two types of thick and thin-walled oocysts were recognized in the intestinal contents. Mean size of its were $5.19{\pm}0.23{\times}4.31{\pm}0.32{\mu}m$ and $5.14{\pm}0.25{\times}4.27{\pm}0.4{\mu}m$, respectively. Carbol fuchsin and Auramine-O stain methods are recommended as the satisfactory ones for the identification of Cryptosporidium oocysts. Giemsa stain was also recommended as available in the laboratory, because a few of developmental stage fo Cryptosporidium could be seen by it.

국내의 CUPtOSPOTidiUm 인체감염 실태를 조사하기 위하여 연세대학 세브란스 병원을 찾은 230명의 외래 환자 분변을 수거하였다. Acid-fast 염색, auramine-rhodamine 염색과 CWptosporidiwpowumoocyst에 특이적인 단클론 항체를 이용한 동정법을 이용하였다. 230명의 환자 중 48명(21%)이 AF 염색법에 의하여 50명(22%)이 AR 염색법에 의하여, 그리고 23명(10%)이 단클론 항체를 이용하는 형광현미경법으로 각각 Cryptosporidium에 감염된 것으로 조사되어 국내에서도 Cryptosporidium 인체 감염이 존재하고 있는 것으로 나타났다.

In this study, we propose a multichannel interdigitated capacitor (IDC) sensor for detecting the bitterness of coffee. The operating principle of the device is based on the variation in capacitance of a sensing membrane in contact with a bitter solution. Four solvatochromic dyes, namely, Nile red, Reichardt's dye, auramine-O, and rhodamine-B, were mixed with polyvinylchloride (PVC) and N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC), to create four different types of bitter-sensitive solutions. These solutions were then individually inserted into four interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) using a spin coater, to prepare four distinct IDC sensors. The sensors are capable of detecting bitterness-inducing chemical compounds in any solution, at concentrations of approximately $1{\mu}M$ to 1 M. The sensitivity of the IDC bitterness sensor containing the Reichardt's dye sensing-membrane was approximately 1.58 nF/decade. The multichannel sensor has a response time of approximately 6 s, and an approximate recovery time of 5 s. The proposed sensor offers a stable sensing response and linear sensing performance over a wide measurement range, with a correlation coefficient ($R^2$) of approximately 0.972.

A study was carried out to detect of illegal artificial dyes, and to confirm the used rate of illegal dyes in the production process of commercial drops (candy), from Dec. 10, 1972 to Feb. 10, 1973. In this study, it was used thin layer chromatography, the samples were divided into two groups, group A of inscribed trade name and group B of not inscribed trade name. To contrast with group A and group B, 100 samples were randomly collected in the market places, 50 samples from group A and 50 samples from group B. The following conclusions were obtained: 1) used rate of illegal dyes were 2% of group A and 9% of group B. 2) used rate of illegal dyes were 2% of red, 2% of yellow, 1% of violet and 6% of green, not in blue. 3) used rate of illegal dyes 3% of Rhodamine B, 3% of Auramine and 6% of Light green S.F. Yellowish. 4) Out of 20 cases those used mixed dyes, only one case was confirmed as two illegal dyes, and 4 cases were used one illegal dye.

Synthetic azo dyes are used extensively in herbal medicines to render the medicines more visually attractive to consumers. This study developed and validated a rapid high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method to determine whether synthetic colorants such as Tartrazine, Auramine O, Metanil yellow, Sunset yellow, and Orange II are used extensively in Typha orientalis. To increase the recovery of the synthetic dyes, this method employed containing 50 mM ammonium acetate in 70 % methanol at first extraction and 100 mM HCl in 70 % methanol at second extraction. Five synthetic pigments in Typha orientalis were separated by gradient elution with a mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile and 50 mM ammonium acetate in distilled water at ultra-violet (UV) detection 428 nm or 500 nm. Additionally, this study established the liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method to confirm positive samples suspected by HPLC results. The HPLC-UV method had good linearity, indicating r²> 0.999. The recoveries of the samples spiked with three different concentration ranged from 73.8~91.5 %, and relative standard deviation values indicated 0.2~5.2 %. The established LC-MS/MS could successfully identify the synthetic pigments in herbal medicine samples. The study demonstrates that Typha orientalis adulterated by yellowish synthetic dyes can be successfully distinguished when using the HPLC-UV method.

연구배경 : 결핵의 병리소견은 하나의 스펙트럼을 이루는데, 결핵균에 대한 면역기능이 정상이면 육아종의 형성이 좋고 결핵균이 거의 발견되지 않지만, 결핵균에 대한 면역 기능이 저하되어 있으면 육아종의 형성이 나쁘며 많은 결해균이 발견된다. 이에 저자들은 결핵성 경부 림프절염 환자의 림프절 조직에서 결핵균에 대한 면역기능의 정도를 알아보기 위해 병리소견과 항산균의 유무를 분석하고 임상적인 특징과 관련이 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 방법 : 조직검사로 결핵성 경부 림프절염으로 진단받은 33명의 환자들의 병리소견을 분석하고 조직표본들을 탈파라핀화한 후 auramine-rhodamine 염색을 시행하여 조직에서의 항산균 유무를 검사한 후, 조직에서의 결핵균 검출 유무가 병리적인 특성(육아종의 형성정도, 건락성 과시의 유무, 중성구의 침윤) 또는 임상적인 특성(림프절의 크기, 림프절의 발견시점에서 조직검사까지의 기간, 림프절 부위의 통증이나 압통의 유무, 흉부방사선 소견상 결핵 소견의 유무)과 연관성이 있는지 알아보았다. 결과 : 1) 대상환자의 평균연령은 42.4세였고, 남녀비는 1:4.5였다. 2) 조직검사 소견 상 모든 예에서 육아종의 형성이 좋았고, 다양한 정도의 건락성 괴사가 관찰되었으며, 39%에서 육아종성 염증 주위로 다형백혈구의 침윤이 관찰되었다. 3) 52%의 예에서 조직표본에서 항산균이 검출되었고, 항산균은 세포 외에 존재하였고, 건락성괴사 부위의 가장자리에서 주로 발견되었다. 4) 조직에서의 항산균 검출 유무와 병리학적 특성 또는 임상적 특성과는 연관성이 없었다. 결론 : 결핵성 경부 림프절염의 경우 육아종의 형성이 좋았고, 조직에서의 항산균 검출 유무와 병리적 또는 임상적 특성과는 연관성이 없었다.
